Bump in The Road entered the country scene back in 2003 as the Oregon State Champions in the Colgate Country Music Showdown. Starting as a three piece band, they relied on their vocal harmonies and instrumentation to connect with audiences all around the state of Oregon. Today, the four of them focus on tightness, tone, and arrangements to keep the audience on their toes. While modern country music is the backbone of the group, many of their individual influences appear in the live show. A very eclectic country band! |
5:00pm |
With traditional good looks, power vocals and a charming smile, Brad Lee Schroeder may seem like another pretty boy rock star, but don't let those looks fool you. One listen to his music and it quickly becomes evident why Brad is one of the most popular country artists to emerge from the Mile High City. From taking over the stage at his high energy live performances to just playing a few acoustic tunes for friends, Brad certainly commands attention. |

Still in his 20s, Granger Smith has played all over the world – two tours in Europe, two tours in Iraq and Kuwait for the American Soldiers, and two shows at the White House, including a performance for President Bush. Granger Smith will never say he didn’t “live life to the lees.” “Music is what I do,” says Smith. “If I can help someone get lost in the moment of a song long enough to forget the worries of the world, or long enough to remember what’s most important, then I’ve done my job.” Granger is an adept presence – on stage and through the speaker – and with the continued rise of popularity, he will soon be recognized throughout America |
